Will I be able to connect the Monoprice 30" IPS CrystalPro Monitor 2560x1600 Display as a second external monitor to my 15" Macbook Pro Retina.

I have a 27" thunderbolt display connected to my 15" macbook Pro. Would I be able to connect a Monoprice 30" IPS CrystalPro Monitor as a second external display and have 2560x1600 resolution using the Dual-link DVI adaptor?

Hi! As someone who just bought one along with a friend... no. Or at least, not easily. I have a 15" Macbook Pro, I have the Apple mini-DP to DVI adaptor, I have the cable that came with the monitor, and it'll only display up to 1900x1200.

Something's afoot here, and maybe this'll end up being solved by using a mini-DP to the monitor's DP input, but... it's not working out of the box as described in the other answers.
